Common Questions About Cape Porpoise, ME Tides

Show All
When is the lowest tide this week in Cape Porpoise, ME?

The lowest tide this week in Cape Porpoise, ME is 0.3 ft on Friday, Jul 3 at 8:21 am.

When is the highest tide this week in Cape Porpoise, ME?

The highest tide this week in Cape Porpoise, ME is 9.3 ft on Wednesday, Jul 8 at 6:07 pm — worth noting for launching your boat and being alert for possible high tide flooding.

What time does the tide turn (slack tide) in Cape Porpoise, ME today?

Slack tide in Cape Porpoise, ME is approximately 4:32 am — midway between the next high and low tide, when tidal current is weakest. This is the preferred window for boat crossings, underwater visibility, and fishing in areas with strong currents.

Is this week a spring tide or neap tide in Cape Porpoise, ME?

Cape Porpoise, ME is currently in a spring phase. Tonight's moon is 97% illuminated. Spring tides (largest swings) occur near new and full moons; neap tides (smallest swings) occur near first and third quarter moons. Tidal ranges this week are near their weekly maximum.

What datum are Cape Porpoise, ME tide heights measured from?

Tide heights on this page are measured from Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW), the U.S. NOAA standard. A height of 0 ft represents the 19-year average of each day's lower low tide. Negative values indicate a "minus tide" — water levels below that long-term reference.

What factors can affect the tide predictions for Cape Porpoise, ME?

Tide predictions for Cape Porpoise, ME come from NOAA's harmonic analysis and are typically accurate within about ±10 minutes on timing and ±0.5 ft on height. Actual water levels can deviate further due to sustained winds, atmospheric pressure changes, river flow, and storm surge. During major weather events, be sure to check US Harbors weather pages for factors that could impact tidal predictions.

Which NOAA station provides tide data for Cape Porpoise, ME?

Tide data for Cape Porpoise, ME is sourced from NOAA Station #8418772. View the official NOAA station page at https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/stationhome.html?id=8418772.

What time is high tide in Cape Porpoise, ME today?

High tides in Cape Porpoise, ME today: 12:42 am (9.3 ft), 1:24 pm (8.0 ft). The 12:42 am high of 9.3 ft is notably higher than the other — known as diurnal inequality, common on coasts influenced by lunar declination.

What time is low tide in Cape Porpoise, ME today?

Low tides in Cape Porpoise, ME today: 7:12 am (0.3 ft), 7:08 pm (1.5 ft).

What is the tidal range in Cape Porpoise, ME today?

Today's tidal range in Cape Porpoise, ME is 9.0 ft — the difference between the day's highest and lowest water level. This month's average daily range is about 9.3 ft, so today's swing is typical.

What is the moon phase in Cape Porpoise, ME tonight?

Tonight the moon over Cape Porpoise, ME is Full Moon (97% illuminated). This places Cape Porpoise, ME in a spring tide cycle, so tidal ranges are near their weekly maximum this week.

What type of tides does Cape Porpoise, ME have — semi-diurnal, diurnal, or mixed?

Cape Porpoise, ME has semi-diurnal tides — two high tides and two low tides roughly every 24 hours and 50 minutes, with similar heights.

US Harbors Tidal Data

The data in our tide charts, tide tables, and tide graphs is provided by NOAA and others. These predictions are derived mathematically from numerous inputs, including data from historical tide stations and nearby locations where sensors are actively recording. As shown in the tide graph at the top of this page, “Predicted” tides (blue) are what forecasting models expect to happen. “Observed” tides (red) are those recorded by local sensors in real time, overlaid on the predictions for direct comparison. We display Observed water levels for a select group of harbors including Portland, Maine, where a physical sensor monitors water levels in real time.
